The haddock portions were quite big. Fries were golden brown, coleslaw was also very tasty.
Amazing!
Great fish and chips. Large sized portions.
I do not recommend. I went on Uber Eats order from them it's 6:49 for delivery LOL then I call them because ubereats said they are currently unavailable to find out I had to pay more delivery when there 5 minutes down the road. This place is nothing but a scam. If you're trying to make a few bucks by your delivery that's pathetic. The sad thing is I run a service where I drive all day long and I provide it free. Because what I'm picking up is what I make. Just like you selling your food I don't know why you got to charge so much for your delivery cost gas is not that much. And we all know what delivery guys get paid. Stop trying to pocket profit off your delivery charges. Pay for the service if you want people to love your restaurant thanks but no thanks I just went to Archie's have a great day
ok
Awesome food. Nice and quiet place to eat ????
Not bad but over priced for what you get.
Food exact same as archies bit more pricey tho so pretty much archies with a drive thru good tho 4 stars
Great service and food,
Very friendly and fast, my family had the perch special and thought everything was great!
The server said it was the best fish and chips in town and after quickly consuming it i must agree!
Sometimes long wait but they are good
A contender for London’s top fish and chip. Fries are fresh cut and good. I wish they would make the tartar sauce and coleslaw in house and really rock my world!!The no nonsense order and pickup separate from a basic dining area is a nice touch.
Good fish and chips. Actually a really good value. And friendly staff. Will be back.
Nice place for lunch. Good prices. Fast service. Options for batter. Light or regular. Classic F&C.
Absolutely amazed at how perfect my fish was, best cod on earth, a must eat. Flakey, fluffy and delicious, the fries are perfect as well. If you like fish and chips make sure you check this place out.
Amazing halibut.
Amazing dine in or go to there order out window! super delicious; one of the best fish n'chippy around!
Good food, nice staff and clean facility
Frozen fish and shrimp, everything tasted like it was fried in the same fryer, and very unfocused menu that offered breakfast and middle Eastern food all at a "fish and chip" restaurant. More focus should be spent on what the sign says before diversifying into other categories.
Food was very good but the fish was a little greasy. Fries were delicious though!
Best fish and chips in town
Great service, good food, and nice local atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Feels spacious and looks clean.Service qwick
Best fish & chips in London.
1st time visit on Sunday April 4 2021. Called in order for pick up. 2 pieces Halibut and chips, 1 poutine, 1 greek salad, 1 onion rings. Yes..i was hungry! ???? Both pieces of fish were huge. Had regular batter vs. light. Absolutely perfect. Flaky, tasty. French fries delicious, not over cooked. Onion rings perfectly battered, cooked. My 18 yr. niece... poutine, she enjoyed very much. My sister... piece of fish, greek salad, fries, onion rings.. loved everything. Was ready in 10-15 minutes. Highly recommend. Prices fine for quality and large servings .
Fantastic meal and very reasonable Will definitely return
Nice place to dine in.. Good Customer service..
Tried them the first time. Ordered their fish and shrimp with rice combo. It was very good. Service was quick and food is tasty and delicious. Price a bit high but quality is what I'm expecting. Highly recommended.
Great seafood and non-seafood dishes. Extremely friendly staff and lots of parking
Was very disappointed, the fish was overcooked and dry and fries were ok. After being told how good they were I expected a lot more. Dont know if I will try them again!
The food was absolutely delicious very big portion and the staff was amazing
Fast service. Good food
Favorite fish and chips
Love the fish & chips
Ordered a dinner for 2. Medium fries and homemade tarter sauce. We received barely enough fries for one and tarter sauce packets. Very greasy. Too much batter and it was overdone. Definitely not worth the price. I wouldn’t order from here again.
This place is a hidden gem! The home cut fries crispy batter and portion sizes make this place a must visit. We ordered the family of 2 dinner which included 2 huge pieces of haddock fries coleslaw and tartar sauce for 37$ DEFINATELY RECOMMEND!!
Fast friendly service and the fish and chips we're well worth the drive from Sarnia.
Meal type
Fantastic! Just so so good! Best Fish ‘N Chips in a very very long time - maybe in years! The fish was buttery delicious, so moist, and perfectly crispy golden battered. The fries were cooked to perfection and the dark gravy was velvety and so umami satisfying! We will be back!
Best place for fish and chips and even breakfast. Doesn't have that smokey smell that other diners have. Very clean place, great service and delicious flavours :).
Good food, fast and friendly service!
Great fish and chips, and reasonably priced!
Amazing fresh fish! Honestly when it comes to fish my favorite is none. That said this place is good if you're not much of a pescatarian and if you are rehab might be the only solution. A little on the pricy side but well worth it
Fish was fres and delicious
I'm always a little leery about trying a new seafood restaurant. Finally tried Golden Lake Seafood for fish and chips and wasn't disappointed. It was really good! There is a lot of large booth seating and the service is good . If you're with someone who isn't a seafood fan plenty of other choices are offered. Daily specials are also offered which are a good deal. The daily special for Thursday was haddock, 4 deep-fried Shrimp , Cole slaw and choice of dessert. Cole slaw doesn't come with a regular order of fish and chips, it's $1.29 extra. Worth it. It's delicious! All the portions are a good size. My husband ordered the special with ice cream for dessert and I had the halibut with light batter. We went home very satisfied.
The service is good... the fish has a little to much oil in it.. but that's what you get for deep fry.... most of the menu is fry..
I ADORE this place! The staff are wonderful and the fish is always PERFECT!
Great meal & service
Not a bad fish and chip place. Greasy food but good.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Yummy crunchy battered fish! The fries were delicious too! The coleslaw I prefer to be more vinegary and sweet. !!!!!!Way cheaper than a competitor down the street!!!!! ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ♡♡♡Our new go-to for fish place!♡♡♡
Coleslaw is wicked good! Had the Halibut, better then Archie's in my opinion.
My father and I went at lunch time and were skeptical but figured we'd give it a try. We were blown out of the water by the quality and speed of service! The coffee was sub par but that shouldn't stop you from the amazing food. Will definitely be going back.
Delish fish and chips
We thought we would try this place for lunch and were very surprised at the quality of food and service. Excellent place for fish and chips! Very fast service and food was tasty!
It's pricey. Fish and. Chips a little greacy. No Cole slaw unless you pay extra. Tarter sauce comes in a packet, not homemade.
The food was good but the one thing that earned this place a 1star is this. If a customer asks for a grilled Cheese sandwich. I don't want to hear from the cook that they can't make it because it's a lunch menu item. It's a damn grilled Cheese!... So I ordered the garlic and cheese toast just to spite them. ????"Can't make a damn grilled cheese sandwich?! You really need to rethink your career choice."????????
Nice place to eat. The food is good and our waitress was fantastic.
First time eating here and I fully enjoyed it. Very homely, local business feel. Great atmosphere. They even have a drive though (I didn't use the drive through but it looks convenient)
Services was very friendly and fast. The food was hot and fresh overall a very pleasant experience.
Delious haddock and garlic shrimp combo. Tartar sauce tasted home made and not served in that little 2oz. paper cup. Megan brought a squirt bottle full. Megan is an amazing server BTW. Yes, fries are your average fare but gravy was great. Fair prices, plenty of food & dinner even came with garlic bread. Archies prices seem to keep going up but not the value. We love the "new ship in town." Golden Lake......we will be back!!!
The fish & chips here is amazing. You can get light batter, but I prefer the regular batter. Price is super reasonable for the portions, and the staff is always so nice and fast.
A nice friendly place. Food was good, fresh, and with a generous portion. The prices are comparable with other local restaurants.
Friendly, fast service. Had a simple fish n' chips in light batter. On par with Archie's.
Amazing fish and chips. A new favorite of mine now. Great lunch specials also
Take out
Worst fish & chips ever ... Impressed with the cleanliness and that employees respected Covid19 recommendations of masks, gloves etc.... but the food and price definitely did not match with the cleanliness of the place. Ordered fish&chips and battered mushrooms. Fries were good... fish was all batter and not much fish, would have preferred less batter. Fish and mushrooms were SOAKED in oil we ended up throwing out the mushrooms and removing the batter from the fish. Spent almost $34 for fries, 2 pieces of overly-battered drenched-in-oil-cod and battered mushrooms. Wouldn't have minded spending as much if the food was good. (No drinks).
My friend Sheila and I enjoyed a very delicious meal of fish ???? and chips????at the Golden Lake Restaurant. The service was very attentive to our needs and we both thank you very much. We will definitely attend there in the near future.☺
(Translated) Unhealthy. Many foods are deep-fried. They don’t match well. There should be vegetables and fruits. Don’t fry too much. Many of the things that match are deep-fried. It’s really unhealthy. I hope the boss knows how to match the food. (Original) 不健康 很多食物都是油炸的 搭配的不好 应该有蔬菜 水果 不要煎炸 太多 搭配的很多东西都是有油炸过的 真的不健康 希望老板懂得 食物搭配吧
Best fish Iand chips I have had since I was in England. Awesome coleslaw as well.
I ordered this place last year and loved it, I ordered it for take out again today because I wanted fish and chips and was very horrified with the experience. The fish is not even cooked, the batter is literally still raw, wet, and squishy. The fries are also not even cooked, they are soaking wet and still half defrosted… it’s really not hard to cook your food.. the last time I had it, it was good. Disappointing, will not be coming back
Nice food always
LOVE this place. Best when dine in, but even take out going across the city, fries and fish still great! Every time
Really good seafood. I tried the trout with veggies.
Best fish and chips in London!
Great haddock and shrimps!
Great gravy.
Fish had a sour taste. Will not return.
excellent Halibut , best in London, batter is perfectly light, waitress was very polite, coleslaw was excellent fries non greasy WOW!
Excellent food
Amazing food, great service looking forward to eat here again.
1st time ordering from this fish location. Ordered the Halibut Dinner with slaw $17.99 , onion rings $5.99 & beef gravy $3.49 ,delivery was $7.00. Terrible Terrible choice of location. The batter was extremely thick ( order thin) , very greasy, very mushy & the fish was extremely dry ….. 2 bites & it was in the garbage. The fry’s were extremely greasy & mushy becuz the fish was in top of them. The beef gravy was very blan and had a very sour note which indicates it was expired ( OLD ) . The onion rings were over cooked Burt and greasy . Seriously a very bad choice in my part . DO NOT EAT HERE .
Meal type
Great atmosphere, fantastic service, tasty food. When I first get into the restaurant, I never expect much from what they offer and im pleasantly surprise of how nice the server were and how clean the place is. We order is baked haddock dinner and I must say that's one of the best baked haddock I have tried in london ont. The fish is cooked prefectly, the rice is nice and the veggies tasty fresh. Price is moderate, although the place is pretty isolated it will be hard to get there without a car. Would recommend this restaurant
Best fish and chips in London,,, mushy peas and onion rings are very tasty
Wonderful experience, great customer service. Would recommend 100%
very bad not recommended at all it's not fish it's bread with some fish
Friendly staff and amazing food.
Friendly service, fast pickup and accurate order. Food tasted great, had haddock and chips, recommend.
Lovely place to eat they don't just have fish and chips
Really great food and excellent portions.
Advertises open until 9… turned away in person by rude staff with bad attitude. Never going again. Used to be a loyal customer. Not anymore.
This place was good loved the atmosphere and a good place to bring a family
Great food all the time
Service was great and on time. (no long ticket times). Food was cooked as requested. Our table of 10people were very satisfied and full.
The food is awesome !!!!!
Best fish and chips in London, trust me I've been around ;).
Yummy food and good friendly service!
Excellent service the fish is amazing never a bad experience with this restaurant. Once a week is not enough for me
Waited 20 mins (dining in) before they even took my order. Definitely not the best fish in London. Greasy and over priced for the portions.
Very good.... get the light batter.
Good food
Great food! All halal, and no bacon, pork, or alcohol on the menu! It is very well priced for a fair amount of food.
Super clean place & love the fish here!
Great service
Good place for fish & Chips
Friendly service and good fish and chips.
Always good food and service
Loved it!! Service, food, halibut is just awesome
Fish tasted fishy. It was too greasy, fairly hard in places. The fries were soggy and underdone with no seasoning on them whatsoever. The employee at the store was unaware of the pricing on Uber Eats and offered no help when my order was wrong regardless of me paying $30 for 2 pieces of fish and a pop and only recieving one piece of fish. Unhappy with the food, unhappy with the service and will not be ordering from Golden Lake again.
Good fish amd chips
Good breading on the fish, nice crunchy deep fried shrimp. Also had tartar sauce one the table where it should be, not in a tiny cup. Waitress let me know about alternatives to my meal that saved me a couple dollars. Would reccomend.
We ordered the haddock and chips through the drive-through order window. Had a "picnic" in our car in the parking lot. It was absolutely delicious! Will definitely do it again.
This is very delicious food. Just writing this review made my mouth water and made me want to go back for more. Best part it is halal incase you want burgers or chicken! And they even have turkey bacon!
The fish is good with a nice crunchy batter. Their shrimp skewers were relatively large shrimps compared to their competition which made for a nice and meaty snack. I tried their rice and i was impressed for a simple dish that looked premade. Their coconut cream pie was about 3 inch tall and a very large slice which tasted and looked homemade. Overall i enjoyed it and would like to go back soon and try their other dishes.
Love the trout diner
This place is awesome! We are already planning our next visit. The decor is nice, casual and makes use of the space. There are both comfy booths and tables available. We were a party of seven, so we got to sample quite a bit of their seafood dinners although there is more on the menu that i want to try, not only fish.. There is something for everyone. The halibut, the haddock, the fish bites, the deep fried and skewered shrimp, fried chicken, shish tawook, even the sides like the fries and coleslaw were all exceptional! No one had any complaints. One thought shared by everyone was although it was mostly fried food, it did not feel oily or heavy, just perfect! It was a busy Sunday evening, almost a full house, but that did not affect the service nor the wait time for the food to come out. Overall a great experience, would definitely recommend it.
Great food..best fish n chips
Best fish and chips I can remember having in a long time. Clean and with friendly, good service.
Excellent service. Excellent quality food AAA+
Amazing. The best restaurant I've ever been to. Great takeout service especially from the takeout section
Great service even better food! Must visit for any fish n chip lover
Awesome halibut and coleslaw. Amazing service as well
Wandered in by fluke, had a surprisingly good meal! Not from London, we were just passing by. This place even got my mother's approval (mushy peas!??!! )
Our favorite fish and chip place in the city
Food tasted good, came out pretty quick. The staff were kind and understanding. I would love to go again. The blueberry pie tasted a bit off but maybe that's just me.
Food was very tasty, crisp batter on my fish, fries were well cooked and good quantity. Unfortunate that not all staff seem to take masking seriously. Would rather not have to get a COVID test after my meal.
ok so ..Golden Lake ... restaurant was clean ..staff was polite ...meal was cod and french fries ....and was delicious ..price was comparable to other fish and chip places ..one side note ..they had burgers .chicken parm and other choices as well ....and pie we will return ...
This is my favourite place ,or I better say my special place because I enjoy every bit,for me is number one ....thank you for the kindness and excellent service ,amazing food,friendly environment,.....
Decided to give them a try and we are so glad we did. The place is SUPER clean. The food didn’t take long and our server was SO genuinely nice. Portions were very big and we didn’t think it was overpriced. We made this out go to fish and chips place.
One of the few remaining fish and chips shops in London. The halibut is to die for :)
Delicious
Tried to support local and order from these guys. Placed an order on doordash for 100$ they took order and payment then 25 mins later cancelled the order without notice. I will never order from here again. Do not trust this business with your hard earn money.
Fast friendly service. Great food. Large portions.
Delicious food and awesome service ????
Great fish and chips!
First time I've been here and I will drop by again. Service was spot on..
Simply put, WOW! The fish is fintastic, and our meal went swimmingly. The coleslaw, perfectly balanced. We'll be recommending this place and next time we're back in town, we'll be back too!
Very friendly service. Unfortunately the food was sub par. It was not busy but we got soggy fries. Extremely greasy fish. Coleslaw was grey. For a place that only does fish n chips I would expect much better. Fries were frozen not fresh cut. Coleslaw seemed old as it was grey and translucent. Package tartar...your sa specialty restaurant you should specialize. Fresh cut fries, non greasy fish and homemade tartar....anyways for the price I thought I was getting quality...I'll go back to my regular fish n chip shops.
Love the services here and the food
It is hard to find a place with good fries and good fish. This place doesn't disappoint. Took a star away as I've had 2 incidents, the menu wasn't very descriptive and didn't mention that there were mushrooms, which I'm allergic to, smothered over an item I ordered. Also found a hair in the fish batter once. Food is good enough to call it a 1 off though.
Good food and price. Staffs are friendly. Nice little place.
Great fish and chips for a good price. Large portions. We eat here once every week or two weeks. The staff and owner are very friendly. Highly recommend this place for good quality fish and chips!
Very good food and fast service. More expensive than other fish and chip place
Hands down best fish in the city
We ordered two servings of haddock fish with chips. What a mistake! The fish was all batter and what there was of it was dry. The fries and the fish were very greasy. Overall a terrible experience and a waste of money.
This place is my go to for fish and chips. The prices are reasonable and the food is really good. The staff are very polite and helpful. It's relaxing experience. I highly recommend the clam chowder.
Aj says it is a superb breakfast and dining experience of quality food and good prices
Decent fish and chips,made a mistake with my order but was rectified
First time was good but when in area will go for lunch. South west of London Ont..
Great place for fish& chips. Friendly, courteous people. I would recommend this place to anyone.
Very greesy. Preffered Archies
Definitely a place to go if you're from the city, but not a travel destination. Classic fish and chips joint that is gaining some (well earned) popularity on the back of reasonable prices, above average quality, and large portions. A couple suggestions: their "regular" batter is fairly heavy (though really tasty), so I would recommend light batter. And similar to other reviews: the coleslaw portion/quality is not worth paying for... Ownership should really reconsider this.
Amazing fish & chips! Perfect amount of batter and not greasy at all. Would recommend to anyone.
Great fish takeaway as always !
The server was excellent. Very accommodating. Extremely pleasant and efficient.
I love the drivethru service! I’m not a fish lover… their chicken wraps are amazing!
Found this place when I was hunting for a new fish and chips joint. Did not disappoint. Food was tasty and the staff were really helpful and friendly. Definitely going back.
Best fish and chips in town. Staff is awesome and friendly. Food is reasonably priced and delicious! Highly recommend!
Excellent food and price
My new favorite fish and chip restaurant
Always a great experience here. The service is excellent. Our waitress is always very helpful and the food very good!
Good food and great service. Highly recommend.
The fish is amazing, everything else seems to be store bought and/or frozen
Dine in if you can to enjoy their fries. The Delisious crispy fish in our boxed takeout was so hudge it completely hid my abundant fries
Best fish and chips in the city. Drive thru is fast!
good place to eat from
It was my first experience today buying fish and chips from Golden lake: very friendly staff and excellent food. Superb quality and the shop was extremely clean: would definitely visit again
Great food.
First time and food was sooo good
Will go back again, great meal
Good food and service..
I've been 3 times now and the fish and chips are great, as was the service. Good value.
Service
Dinner
This is a real gem in London Ontario for fish and chips. The portions are huge!!! But not only are they huge they are so very delicious. My very favourite part is they have an entire squeeze bottle of tartar sauce on the table. Not those stupid packets you have to open or not enough to cover a tooth of your fish!!! I highly recommend this restaurant!!!
Was very good and I was so happy
This was my first time at the restaurant and with being an English man and knowing my fish and chips. I ordered halibut and chips with mushy peas and a drink and have to say its one of the best in London. Service was good and the staff were very pleasant.
Food is delicious, service is excellent, staff is friendly and food is delicious!
Food was tasty, fast and fresh. Service was A1
This little restaurant is lovely and clean, has wonderful service and delicious fish and chips. I love fish and chips, but it is hard to find a place that has a nice light crispy batter and, offers a good price as well as quality fish. Golden lake delivers on these things and they do it so well. I personally think they put Walker's to shame. If you are looking for a great piece of crispy yet light halibut and chips this is the place to go.
good seafood, nice relaxed atmosphere..little pricey
Tasty
Service
Friendly staff and the Food was more than enough. We had the Haddock & Shrimp Special and it was more than what we expected! The Fish Batter was crisp on the outside and slightly fluffy on the inside and the shrimps were large and not what we expected. Coleslaw was creamy. Kids Sampler plate is good for our little one and still had to take a box home. (No photos since we ate it all up, before we had a chance to snap a pic ????)
Best fish and chips I've had for a long time ! And good size portions. ????
Great service. Great food, Chef Moe did an Amazing job.
Great food at a good price
Our new "favourite" fish and chips place. Food was very good, and service second to none. Would highly recommend this place to anyone in London looking for a good meal. Their menu also includes non seafood items for those who are fish fans.
As an avid lover of fish and chips, I actually feel somewhat embarrassed that it took me so long to visit for a meal. After many recommendations from friends and family, Golden Lake definitely lived up to expectations. Our server was extremely friendly and the speed at which our food arrived was rather impressive. The fish and chips along with the fries were all high quality and supported with very reasonable prices. In terms of value and quality, Golden Lake Seafood Restaurant is a big hit.
Absolutely fantastic meal! I had the haddock & garlic shrimp with sweet potato fries. The taste of the garlic shrimp was amazing, tender and juicy! I will definitely be back again and again. Now, I just have to find out if they grill the fish instead of battered deep fry. I'd like to try that too. :) Happy customer!
Service and food are both decent. We regularly return here.
This place is amazing!! The best fish in London hands down!
Used the drive through very nice fish And chips will be back
Good place
No as good as old london.
Oh boy do my wife and I love this place for fish and chips. I find their prices a little more that I would like but we still keep coming back for some halibut and onion rings. They gave me my food one night and I forgot to pay, I couldn't leave without so went back to pay because it is such a homely place that I didn't want to cheap them out.
Food is fantastic and service is amazing. Found our new favorite restaurant.
I ordered the meal on the phone, they gave me a time when it would be ready and we picked up the order
This is a fantastic restaurant, clean, friendly staff, and absolutely delicious food! Our first time visiting today but will certainly not be the last. The Halibut was beautifully cooked, excellent fries, shrimp perfect, coleslaw one of the best I've had and what can I say about the mushy peas, perfect, just like mum used to make. Well worth a visit. They have a varied menu so if you don't won't fish and chips, there are many other alternatives. Great job, keep up the good work.
That was the worst fish and chips I have ever eaten the fish was dry and very little I would not recommend this place.????????
A proper fish and chips restaurant does not use frozen chips. The fish and batter are good but without hand cut chips I can't rate this place too highly. I've been to this place a few times but I think they've seen the last of us. One more thing. How many restaurants charge an extra $1.25 for Cole slaw?
Great fish
My wife had this place recommended to her from customers at her work. This was our first opportunity to visit. The fish and chips were great. My wife had the cod & chips and I had the haddock, both were fresh crispy hot and golden. The place has probably a dozen or so good size booths, looked very clean. Service was prompt and friendly. We will definitely be back.
(Translated) Best fish & chip from all over Ontario !!! Can not wait to go back ???? (Original) Meilleur fish&chip de tout l’Ontario!!! Déjà hâte d’y retourner ????
Great food. Friendly clean
Good food for a good price. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.
Big portions, decent prices. Food was good, but what made our visit amazing was our server! She was so fantastic & friendly & made the visit truly worth it.
Very good fish and chips!
Exactly what want in a fish n chips spot! Will return for sure.
Yum
This was the first and last time for us. I ordered the seafood combo with battered fish, fries and 5 breaded shrimp. The shrimp was over cooked and chewy. The fish was all batter. I had to pick the batter off because there was so much and there wasn’t much fish in there. The fries were not cooked enough so soggy. My husband had the garlic shrimp and rice. He liked his. It looked way better than my meal. I was disappointed and felt like half mine went into the garbage.
Very delicious food and amazing service. Friendly staff and a menu that will take you sometime to choose from! Don't miss the rainbow trout and the garlic shrimp.
Delicious!
It's okay.
Such good quality food, for pretty good prices! Decor is lovely and had the nicest waitress we have ever met who just made our experience amazing. Definitely our go to seafood place now.
First time for me and highly recommended by my husband as the best fish and chips in London. Also the sides were very good too! Deep fried mushrooms and dill pickles, amazing! This is definitely our “new” go to for fish and chips! Everything was perfect! Thank you, we’ll definitely be back. Gail
Quick drive thru for a on the go meal
I posted a review on their Facebook page but I thought I would double up here as well. We have now tried Golden Lake twice now, both times as takeout. We've always used "Archie's" as the benchmark for what we consider GOOD fish and chips. We've wanted to try Olde London Fish N Chips but it seems like any time we've gone there, the lineup is way too long. So naturally we were curious when Golden Lake opened. So we ordered the haddock dinner for 2 the first time, and the dinner for 3 the second time. Each time the fish was fantastic and tasty. I would say that their fish is every bit as good as Archie's. We were offered a choice of light or regular batter. So far we have only tried the regular batter but it has a great taste and flavour to it. The first time we had their food I would have described their fries as "just ok". They weren't bad, but they weren't great either, they were just average. But to be fair, at that time I couldn't really say what they could do to change it.. But the second time we ate there, the fries seemed much better. I'm sure it was mind over matter, but in the event they have changed something, its for the better!! Both time's we've ordered their food, it has been ready on time, the staff are always friendly. I don't eat coleslaw, but I was told it is quite good. One of these days we might try dining in their restaurant, but I can say for sure that the takeout is fantastic.
Highly recommend this restaurant! Food was delicious, restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly! I ordered the halibut with onion rings and coleslaw! 10/10
Not impressed. Save your money, service was ok but food was not up to par with other joints in London. Much better options out there people.
Best haddock and chips I've ever had! Love their weekly specials. Great service!
Amazing service and great fish and chips
Food is excellent but some of the employees not very nice
The staff were very nice but the fish wasn't great.
Best resteraunt in london
Great service...great food...great value for money
I ordered the one fish from them on uber eats. It was moderately okay. I decided to call them a few days later to see if they delivered. I live down the street, literally a 3-4 minute drive, and they tried to charge me 7$ delivery. Which I find is a smack in the face. They lose my business because of the lack of respect they have towards people. If they are busy let the customers know especially during a time like this. I don't like when someone who works there that can have control over the charge fee at any time. That is rude and shouldn't be working in the food industry.
Good food good price.
Service was good, fish was small, price too much.
Amazing food and service
Have visited this place several times both inside dining and through the drive thru . The halibut dinner is amazing . Cooked to perfection and a generous sized piece . Service is excellent.
The portions are quite large and the prices are low. I loved the polluck and fries combo.
very good all around
Fish and Chips were great!
Take out
Our favourite fish and chips restaurant! The food is amazing, and they serve large portions as well. Definitely worth the price! The staffs provide a fast service and are very friendly.

Best fish and chips along with (to die for) homemade tartar sauce in town
(Translated) The food is delicious Fast and kind service (Original) Finom az étel Gyors és kedves kiszolgálás
3 went for supper all very happy. &satisfied
The fish was the best fish I've had in a long while. I had the halibut and it was incredible. The staff were a bit pokey but they are nice people and we didn't mind waiting.
Great fish
Had the pollock fish and it was real good the staff was kind and gave me extra tartar sauce when i asked. Will go there again
They have good fish but the prices are a bit much. Also the drive through doesn't work properly so you have to remember what you want to order and pull up to the window. The last two times I have been there they didn't give us any thing to eat with. We usually eat in our car as we have busy lifestyles. So this was a major inconvenience for us. Again good fish and all however getting a box full of grease at the bottom and nothing to eat the fish with let alone wipe you're hands with bothered me. If you choose to eat here go inside and enjoy it for a better experience. Pricy but worth it. Just make sure to ask for utensils, napkins and condiments if you go through the drive through.
Food was awesome! Friendly staff and huge plates! Will definitely be returning.
Dinner
Good food and tasty
Taste ok but portionon the small side
Let me preface my review with telling you I'm a regular at Olde London Fish N Chips that is only a little bit further away than Golden Lake. Now having said that, I came here with my wife and tried the staple of any good fish n chips place; halibut fish and chips. We bought the dinner for 2. Dinner came with 2 large pieces of halibut, enough fries that we didn't finish them plus coleslaw and a side of gravy. We opted for the regular batter on the fish though light batter was an offered option. Fish was excellent in my opinion. There was a fair bit of grease in the box when I got home but at least it wasn't in the fish. Fries were decent enough. I have had better but no major complaints here. Beef gravy was good but almost too beefy in my opinion. Lol! Seems more like a gravy you'd like on a hot chicken or beef sandwich but no big deal. Last but not least the coleslaw. I thought it was fabulous. Cream based as opposed to so many others doing vinegar based. Top marks! I've waited a long time for someone to have one like this again! And it was a larger one for 2 but lots to enjoy instead of the paltry smaller sized ones most places use. 5 stars. Thanks Golden Lake! We will be returning! Cheers!
Great fish and chips reasonably priced they do take out so well
This was a wonderful eating experience in a very friendly establishment. I had the lightly battered haddock and breaded shrimp dinner. It arrived quickly and hot. It was delicious! The young lady serving was courteous and attentive. You need to check this place out in South London. They have daily specials, other options for non seafood diners. I will be returning.
Waitress is ultra cute and very helpful. Pricing is very reasonable for the large portion size and much better than Archie's. Fish and chips meal is good but the extra thick batter is just a bit too hard; the thinner batter is probably better. Restaurant decor is super clean the place looks brand new. This restaurant deserves many more cusyomers!
The fish was greasy and dry
Amazing food with fantastic staff. I highly recommend that you have your next delicious lunch & dinner here!
This place is amazing!! They have all types of different amazing sea food but also some other delicious meals. Absloutely love this restaurant.
Amazing experience from the time I walked in until the time I left. Opening the door to the restaurant you feel as if you are in an beach front seafood restaurant with a modern design in the entire restaurant and has ample seating for both small and large groups. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a very kind host and seated right away and given time to review the full menu with seafood and other options (burgers and chicken). I was then promptly greeted by the waiter who took the order and answered all my questions. The food came very quickly and after finishing my plate, I have to say it was the best Fish and Chips I had ever ate! I recently came back from a trip to London, England and visited some of the best Fish and Chips restaurant in the country (Poppies Fish & Chips, The Golden Chippy) and I can honestly say this was a better all around taste and experience with Golden Lakes excellent batter on the fresh Alaskan Halibut ordered. The waiter came twice and asked if we need anything else, a refill and finally thank us for the visit. I couldn't have asked for a better all around experience. I plan on coming back and bringing a larger group to eat in again and try there breakfast menu! Great job Golden Lake Fish and Chips Team.
Best fish and chips I've had in awhile highly recommend
I cannot help with reviews on all the food on the menu.. But I can tell you that I ordered Haddock fish with a side of fries that came out to around $8.00 before tax, I believe. The food was good and very filling.. The very generous proportion of fish they give you makes ordering a 2 piece fish meal unnecessary (in my opinion).. Atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and servers are fast and polite. Would recommend as a nice family style restaurant setting. Restaurant has both booths and regular seats.. Paying for your meal is done at the front counter when finished by showing your receipt. Overall a nice, clean and friendly restaurant that I recommend and will likely visit again.
We ordered the Halibut for take out as I thought it would be good to support a new Business I'm the Community. I don't think I'll go back!! Paid what I considered good money and received alot of food. Ran to the car as it was running and the Heater was on!! Lots of French Fries (cold & greasy) and the Fish couldn't be cut with a Sharp Steak Knife... incredible!! I'll go back to Archie's!! The food should have been at it's best as it was only 5:00p.m. on a Saturday.
The fish was crisp. Not soggy at all. Prices are very decent and you don't leave hungry. We'll definitely come back here for fish and chips!
Best fish and chips in London! Love that you can go through the drive through for an added convenience.
Amazing food and amazing service! We've dined in and had take out and both were great experiences! Will be back!
Awesome fish n chips. Never going back to overpriced Archie's and their lack of quality. I've had Golden Lake 3 times now, twice take out, once in restaurant. Everything is very fresh, the place is very clean and lots and lots of options and their batter is on par. I bring my grandmother fish and chips every now and then, she's 94 and is a big fish n chips fan, she also gives them 5 stars with the halibut!
Ordered take out, lrg greek salad, chicken ceasar wrap with fries and coleslaw and chicken wrap with fries and coleslaw. 2nd and last time. Taste less food, no cutlery, no napkins, no condiments offered or given. Order was accurate and made fast within 15 mins, thus the 1 star. If you don't have tastebuds or like plain food then try them.
This restaurant is just AWSOME. Food is so delicious, from fried or grilled seafood meals to burgers and pastas. I really recommend their deep fried haddock fish and chips. Dont forget to get the creamy coleslaw with that. Fish is flacky and crispy and the fries are buttury delicious. Coleslaw is super creamy (I LOVE THIS SO MUCH). The food is plenty in every plate, like generous amounts, like you will be super full (if you are even able to finish the plate) The service is next level. Servers are friendly and really take care of you. Meagan, one of the servers is just exceptional, super welcoming and nice. The healthy aspect, a lot of their food is deep fried so not that healthy but you can go with grilled fish which is good but not like deep fried. All in all, i recommend this place 110% if am able to give them a 6 star i would!!
Food was great. Clean and nice atmosphere. The staff checked on us often to make sure we were happy. Portions were generous too.
Best fish and chips ever!
Love the food great for a quick lunch or dinner..... awesome fries
Great place for fish and chips. Reasonable prices and they have great shrimp too.
Really happy about my experience. The food was delicious, I had the shrimp and haddock lunch special. I loved the breading on the shrimp and that the fish wasn’t greasy. Kinda wish it woulda came with a slaw though. I had to steal some from my wife.. hehe
Lunch
Great experience. Good service, good food.
Great fish !! Great service !
First time at Golden Lake. I got some classic take out fish and chips. They have this nice little takeout window. Also have a drive thru. There is a main eat in area as well. Overall the food was good. And the frys were clearly fresh cut/home made. Also the take out server was extremely friendly and nice.
Fantastic fish and chips large portions all very well done
Loved the halibut and chips!
best fish and chips in the city of london for the money and i have tried them all ...... 7.49 for a good size pc of pollock and a heaping order of fries for a lunch special , breaded shrimp is awesome too .clean place and inviting decor ...... will go back for sure
The food was incredible... i loved their fries... this was my better food choice today

Dinner
I wlild highly recommend this place it is the best seafood ive had in a while
Great seafood, whole family loved it.
We have gone now 2 weeks in a row, just planning our third. We have been getting 3 pc dinner very good fish (pollock) with fries Good batter like the old time fish that i remember. Found prices reasonable. Would state it is better than Archie's and at a better price. Little hidden gem
I wan't quite as thrilled about this place as some of the other reviewers seem to be. I found it to be just okay, nothing special though. The restaurant is a little small but clean and inviting. Service was good and food arrived quickly. I ordered the halibut and chips ( $14.99) and they were good, but again, nothing overly special or any different than any other Fish & Chip restaurant. If you wanted coleslaw with that, it was an extra charge, which I found rather unusual as most Fish & Chip places include that in the price of the meal. In my opinion, this is just an average Fish & Chip place that doesn't have anything different than any other Fish & Chip place offers. It's not bad, but it's nothing overly special either.
Good food. Great price and the service was exceptional.
What a find this was! You have to watch for it, because it's tucked in beside and almost behind the Shoe Factory on the side street. The meal was great - the fish done perfectly and I even had a baked potato instead of fries. Prices are reasonable, but best of all was the coconut cream pie. We were even able to purchase one to bring home. You really must try this restaurant for yourself.
Very good fish.
My husband and I just recently had dinner at this place . Amazing food, generous portions . I’ve never had such a fresh Greek salad! Very clean . I highly recommend !
Fish was done well. No after taste of oil in the fish which makes me completely satisfied. Will definitely come back for a second visit
My first time ordering from there. I go by that road often and have never saw it. So glad I did. I got Halibut dinner for 3 and it was all so amazing! It tasted so good! My family ate every bit up, which rarely happens. One also stated they officially liked it better than the other place they usually go to. Thank you for an awesome dinner!
Great food. Nice pieces
Good place
Food was amazing! Very very tasty and the portion size was more than generous! Be sure to check this place out! Karim
Nice decor, friendly and quick service. Everything tasted fresh.
Fries are so so good, fish is on the oily side but tastes ok.
My friends loved it I found it greasy
I visited a few weeks ago and had the flour dusted haddock with fries. The fish was a little oily/greasy and the fries didn’t seem fresh (as in they didn’t taste like hand cut fries) which was surprising because we were the only people in the restaurant. The meal was okay but I don’t know if I’ll return based on the food. I will mention that the owner/manager seemed very interested in making us happy and was very nice. The restaurant decor was really modern, restaurant was clean and they really did do a lot to transform the old Timmies.
Meal type
You will want to come back here again and again. I was blown away by the appetizer food selection (battered mushrooms, fried pickles, grilled cheese toast) well as the lunch/dinner menu. Super clean place, menu has photos so you know exactly what you are ordering. Extremely friendly service. My recommendation would be obviously fish and chips as well as the Chicken Parmesan. Fish was perfectly battered, crispy and and not too oily. Chicken cutlet was irresistible - falling apart when cutting it. Tomato sauce with pasta was just as good. Stopping here for lunch to eat made my day.
The food is excellent. Some of the best fries and burgers we have had in a long time. My wife especially likes the halibut because it is offered in either heavy or light batter. My daughter also gave the chicken fingers a thumbs up. Great service and great food. Highly recommended.
Great spot ! Great fish and chips. Ill be back. Clean place nice and cool to .
Great Food . Great Service . Awesome staff. Highly Recommend.
This was hands down the best fish and chips place I've found in London. We've ordered delivery and pick up, it was fantastic both times. Only place we will order fish and chips moving forward! If you haven't tried them, DO IT! You will not be disappointed!
Great service, good portions, good price and excellent tasting food, staff was attentive, will definitely return.
The food is very good . The waiter should write down the order so he doesn't make mistakes. Don't know if he is new or not, he is trying. But until he is more comfortable with his job writing down things would help alot. And yes I did leave a tip I have made mistakes myself.
Shared a haddock dinner for two with my wife. Absolutely delicious. ????
Great food and prices would definately recommend this place
Absolutely the best fish n chips in the area
We have been there a couple of times .. the food is amazing. I want to try the whole menu. Friendly staff, clean,outstanding service . They have drive thru , pick up, delivery, and eat in .. Honestly you have to try this place . I had the chicken parmigiana, best ever melt in your.mouth and the flavor!!! They have daily specials .. a must try. My hubby had the pickerel.. every bite was mmmm,mmm
